range.
 

Hey everyone i have been out practicing with my bow and good from 0-2- yards, havent really gotten out to past that. was wondering how far out i should go til i stop.i was hitting a water bttle cap at 20 which makes me very confident for the upcoming season. just let me know where you are confident out to.

RE: range.
 

during practice i usually go out to around 45-50 at the farthest but i would never take a shot on an animal at that rangemy limit for shooting at game is around 25-30 just practicing at those longer distances makes the 20yd shots seem like a slam dunk

RE: range.
 

So far for me, uumm about 25 yards. I wont be taking shots much farther than 25-30 yards (on an animal). I have not really had the opportunity to shoot farther than that on a regular basis.

I practice seriously out to 50 yards, but early in the year, I'll move out to 60 and shoot my 3d target. I would never take a shot that long and not over 40 under most circumstances, but practicing at that distance seems to make the shorter shots easier, if that makes sense. A 20 yard shot becomes a chip shot. Gotta go practice.

I practice out to 40 with good grouping. Confident at 30 i will hit the mark . at 20 your splitting hairs where i want it

RE: range.
 

40 is a good range.

i have a 40 yard pin but it would have to be the buck of a lifetime before i would fling an arrow at it other than that about 30 confidently

RE: range.
 

I start at twenty, go to thirty, then to thirty five and sometimes forty. Then back to twenty just to get my confidence back up. Hunting shots are limited to twenty to twenty five yds. Preferably closer...

i was also wondering about how many times a week does everyone practice... ive never really been in the field except for once, so im not sure how often i should be practicing to prepare for a whole season which i will be taking advantage of finally.

RE: range.
 

Shoot out as far as you feel comfortable, i shoot to 50 but then i only had enough pins for out to 50 so....
